The Packers can't catch us and we have tie breaker on the Bears.

We also have the tie breaker on both the 40Whiners and Cardinals.

So, can someone explain to me why we haven't clinched a spot yet? My brain hurts.

The Cards are only 1 game back, so they could pass us with 2 wins if we lose two.

And keep in mind, Carolina loses the tie breaker to the Cards, so if Carolina loses two, the Cards could bump them from the wildcard.
